Cute items at such a good price in comparison to FiveBelow and other dollar stores here. I always leave with a full basket especially during spring time. They have such cute sakura themed dishes, cups and plates and decor. Of courses everything is cheaper in Japan by more than half, but prices have seem to also gone up because of tariffs. I really hope this location doesn't close down as the Oakridge and Great mall locations did close. Employees seem happier at this location than the previous other locations. read more

Daiso - Discount Store Near Me - San Jose, California

I have been to several Daiso Locations in San Francisco Daly City & San Jose..... Out Of The Daiso Locations That I Have been to I have to say my favorite Daiso store that I have been to is The JapanTown Daiso Location in San Francisco!!!!! I have bought several items at Daiso my favorite item that I bought is a Donald Duck Zip Pouch & Mini Size Electric Lint Remover!!!!! read more

Out of all the Daiso I have been to, this is arguably the best one. It's very spacious and carries a large variety of items. The products are also great for its value. Most items are $1.75 if there isn't a price on it. It's clean and I like how the aisles are not too cramped for people to walk through compared to other locations. The customer service is always efficient and friendly. read more

This is a huge Daiso located in Eastridge Mall. It's a very deep store and goes really far back. I was impressed with the amount of inventory here. My favorite section is in the front: the Sanrio stuff! I love looking at the doodads here like keychains, stationery, etc. I usually can't resist and often pick up stuff like keychains and pens. They are usually more expensive (over $1.75) but still pretty cheap like under $5 for most items. You can pay with cash or card. read more

This is a pretty big, well stocked Daiso. Much better than the standalone one at the japanese supermarket. I wandered in here and looked around. Everything was well stocked and organized. There is a self check out but for some reason the girl helped me swipe all my items. Will come back if I'm ever near Eastridge read more

I really like this discount department store -- it has a great variety of goods and selections within different lines of merchandise at great prices. Staff is very friendly and helpful, and I purchase mostly things here as gifts and items for my place. Really great! read more

Not the greatest Daiso Japan. This particular store always looks extremely bare, giving off "close out" vibes. Items aren't as abundant as other locations but they carry the typical staples I look forward to. My favorite aisle to visit is the snacks department and the assortment of Hi-Chews offered absolutely gives me LIFE. Snacks can come off a bit repetitive but if you take the time to browse and with a little luck on your side, there are some pretty cool finds. 3 stars thanks to the affordable treats and the bargains pertaining to the plates, bowls, & it's additional dinnerware. read more

IMHO It's always fun to cruise the aisles at Daiso. You never know what you're going to find! Today we had to kill some time in the mall and knew that we'd be diverted inside Daiso. It's drought season in California and we need to conserve our water usage! In our household, we are saving our sink and shower water (showering in a big bucket...), and collecting the water to flush our toilets. Yes, it makes a difference!!! So I was looking for some small buckets to collect the water. I found two different-sized buckets for $1.50 each! The store is clean, organized and fairly bright. Customer service was friendly. read more

Simply the best at the cheapest japanese look-a-like items you can buy for your house.

Loved this place! The day I came they were stocking up on a lot of items. I came specifically for their Rilakkuma/Sanrio section and they carried so many things! Happily surprised. I would recommend to come on a weekday for sure. Also they sell plushies here so that's always a plus in my book. read more

I am a fan of Daiso. This location however is just so so. First off the lighting was dull and it was messy, unlike all the other locations I have been to which are clean, well organized and well lit. read more

False advertising!! &bad customer service! They have the price of boba shibas for $5/each and when we made a purchase they charged us for $12.25. We showed them the whole 2-3 shelves with these boba shibas with advertised for $5 all over. The guy name Darwin Manuel even told us that he can't give us that price even tho 10 stickers with $5 price located right in-front, above, below these items. read more

This location doesn't look very big from the outside, but once you enter, you quickly realize that they have a fairly large inventory of goods for sale. I love the variety that they stock, you will recognize all of their products; just in Japanese import form, and will also see quite a few items that you have never heard of, but will absolutely want to have. read more

Main reasons of coming here is my kiddos incessant plea to check it out whenever were together shopping AND replenishing my stock of correction tapes. I do find some things that I need like those foldable boxes with lids and kitchen tools. My daughter found this facial wash last year with coal bits on it and she swears that it's effective on her skin. However they don't seem to carry any facial washes anymore coz every time we visit, all we see are cosmetics or hand/body lotions. The place is much smaller than the one in Great Mall or Japantown in SF but still a nice place to check out anything Japanese. I went there again about two weeks ago and they changed the location of the items. The office supplies (where I get my correction tapes) are at the back were they used to have the figurines and other trinkets displayed. Some of the racks were empty and has not been restocked with anything. They were probably putting new merchandise at this point as I saw some workers figuring out the empty space. I just wished they would put back the school/office supplies back to were it used to be. I did find my correction tapes and these are so kawaii (cute in Japanese). Yonde kurete arigato! (thank you for reading!) read more

Such a cute store inside Eastridge. Everything is kept clean and organized well by the staff. All the staff are also very nice and helpful as well. You can find a lot of cheap finds for your daily needs and lots of Japanese snacks as well! read more

This Daiso location is alright. They keep changing the layout of the store so it's hard to find anything. For some reason, every time I come in here I get very hot. The aisles are small. read more

The last time I step foot in this store was a million years ago and I don't recall that I needed anything low of quality but last Saturday I took my daughter here because I promised her I would get her erasers (erasers shaped like food and misc. things), I found so many cute things that are both useful and useless to have. My kitchen appliances and cookware needs to be a certain brand (i.e. Kitchenaid, Cuisinart) so buying a frying pan here is out of the question but they have lots of plate and bowl settings that was too cute to pass up however, I refrained but I will return to get bento box sets because it's just too darn cute. I can make chicken katsu or tonkatsu and have a "Japanese" night. If you like to bake, this place has a lot of bakeware and cute ramekins. I not only love to bake but to give them away as gifts; this store has cellophane and goodie type bags just for that. I only put on eyelashes - OK - I pay for someone at MAC to put on my eyelashes for special escapades but after seeing the eyelashes here, perhaps I should start learning so I can look fabulous all the time. Lots of snacks. I wanted to look for the red wine Pocky (never had it) but I didn't see any. My kids enjoy those Asian shrimp chips so I got 2 bags of those. In the end, I had to walk out w/ at least one purchase and that purchase was a round egg thing I can use to microwave to get sunny side up eggs. What is blah is that the instructions to use it are in Japanese (2 attachments and I have no clue how to utilize it properly) but I have made eggs in it twice for my healthy bagel breakfast sandwiches this week. Don't scoff... the bagels are bagel thins and only consist of 110 calories! read more

Well I first heard about Daiso on one of my visits to Japan to see my sister. She shops there a lot. They carry some different items there that you can't get here. It's better than the dollar stores like dollar tree in my opinion. I like to stop in and get some things like eye glass cleaner cloths, garbage bags, chalk markers and other incidental items. You can't beat the price most items are $1.50, but some are higher so be sure to check the price out before you get to the check out line. They are pretty much everywhere. Each store carries different items based on availability. read more

Love coming to this store to feed my post-it's addiction. They always have the cutest little post-it's. I can't help but come in every time I'm at the mall. They also have a variety of Asian soups and drinks. This time they even had canes for $2.00 dollars. I might need to get one for my sister or me, joking. Come in and see what you find here I'm sure you'll find something for your office, a snack, or some beauty aid. read more

Small but well stocked. I'm always up for a stroll in Daiso just to see what cute stuff they have for my puppies. I also found this faux fur hair clip that was going for $14 at Nordstrom at $1.50 apiece. Such a small price to pay for random things that you don't really need! read more

Daiso - Discount Store Near Me - San Jose, California

I love this Daiso Japan location. Its a decent size store with a lot of cool things to buy. I love how majority of the items are only $1.5!! A lot of the items are better quality than the Dollar Tree. I was able to buy a lot of cute Japanese bowls and plates here. There is such a variety of things to look at, so I suggest customers to spend at least 30 minutes inside. You will want to browse every aisle. read more

Beware of their canned drinks! I bought this calpico and discovered that it had some weird squishy black thing at the bottom... I don't think that I'll be shopping for their beverages anymore. - I normally stopped by to grab a drink when I was in the area but due to this unfortunate experience it makes me certainly question the integrity of "all" of the beverages. read more

Your one stop shop for pretty much everything! Cups, dish ware, umbrellas, snacks, curry, drinks... the list can go on and on! I love the convenience of it being located inside of Eastridge, since I'm there so much. The staff members are usually friendly, but can be a hit or miss sometimes. I don't mind this at all, though. I absolutely love going here to get their golden curry roux blocks. They're priced at $4, it makes soo much, and it's delicious with fresh veggies and brown rice! And they're my go-to place for school supplies. Their notebooks are just the right size, and always super cute. Priced only a few more cents than the Dollar Tree, with better quality stuff, it's definitely a steal. read more

Lovely little store! It's pretty neat how Daiso has a little bit of everything: snacks, beauty, stationary- you name it and they most likely have it! Finding what you need is alright, the aisles are neatly organized with items in the same category being grouped together. The downside is that the aisles are a bit narrow and aren't labeled though- a little inconvenient but tolerable nonetheless. The items themselves are pretty good quality and do pretty well for the (mostly) advertised $1.50 set price most items in the store have. The cashiers are usually nice, however the person I interacted with this time seemed like they didn't want to be there (Personal preference! I don't expect sunshines and rainbows, however I don't want blank stares and monotone voices either!) :/ Overall, the trip was pleasant and I'd definitely return for more! read more

Love this store you can find pretty much anything, I was looking for a crazy glue and I end up getting some other things, a very organized store and really cheap items. The crazy glue that I bought was amazing, thanks to Joanna the cashier she ask me if I found what I need and I told her I couldn't find the crazy glue, and with out any problem she get out of the register and show me directly where it was I love when someone cares about 100%costumer satisfaction thanks Joana read more

Daiso - Discount Store Near Me - San Jose, California

It has been a while since I have been in this store. I came in today and was disappointed. I did not see anything I wanted to buy and that really did surprise me. In the past, this store got the cutest socks, had lots of jewelry and hair accessories, and Disney items. I looked around and nothing tempted me to buy. I also saw a lot more items that were priced more than $1.75. Things sure have changed. I think I will prefer Dollar Tree now, I find better stuff there and prices are $1.25 on most everything with only a few items priced at $3. So I see more selection and better deals at Dollar Tree. Daiso Japan sells merchandise made specifically for their store and their items were of high quality. Now I do not see the same kind of merchandise as in the past. Dollar Tree is consistent and they have both merchandise specifically made to sell at their store and merchandise that originally came from other stores like Walmart as well as known brands like Scunci, Dove, and more. It makes now shopping at Dollar Tree more appealing. read more

I love this place! It's cheap and sell all kinds of useless and unnecessary things that you just have to buy. The prices are very cheap and the place carries so many cute things you probably can't find anywhere else. The place is jam packed from Asian beauty goods, stationary, snacks to even household products. It's like an adventure every time, because you'll always find something that will catch your eye whether it be something horribly strange or darling. It's also a great time waster. read more

I would shop in Daiso than the other stores. Everything is cheap. I all got was a green tea drink. Line goes by fast and is a nice place to go in. read more

Sold me a broken item in the wrong box. Tried to call the store about it and got hung up on. I found a kitchen timer without a box and could not find any employees on the floor to help me because they were all standing around behind the checkout counter. I came up to the counter to ask about finding another timer but the cashier rung me up before I finished my question. When I told her I wanted the timer, but I couldn't find one with a box, she just threw it in another item's box and continued to ring up my other purchases. I got home about half an hour later and realized that the timer was broken. I tried to call the store but the line rang a few times and then disconnected. I understand that the store doesn't do refunds or exchanges, but the item was not in a condition to be sold in the first place and the purchase was handled irresponsibly. This is one of my favorite stores to visit, but don't expect anything resembling service at this location or you'll be very disappointed. read more

Daiso - Kitchen timer was sold to me broken and in the wrong box :/ - Discount Store Near Me - San Jose, California

This huge DAISO store has NO ELECTRIC DRIVEABLE HANDICAPPED CARTS for shoppers. What is the disconnect between store management and their foreign retail store shoppers? In the USA, "The CDC recently found that 25% of US adults have a disability." This means many Americans may have difficulty walking. Hense, US stores provide motorized shopping carts. Even small grocery chains have handicapped carts for their shoppers. But, when I called this Daiso store today and asked if they had handicapped carts they hung up on me in mid sentence...after screaming NO over the phone at me. I was not rude to them. I was smiling and friendly, but did ask how could they not have handicapped carts in their huge store. They slammed down the phone. Not just rude, beyond stupid management for any retail chain doing business in the USA. read more

Daiso is a no frills Japanese discount store, but this Daiso was rather messy and unorganized. It was hard to find what we needed and we eventually found those items. When I asked if I could have a receipt, the female cashier was a bit rude about it, even though I told her I was going to pay with a debit card. I needed the receipt for cash back on the Receipt Hog app. *sigh* read more

This is one of my favorite Daiso Japan stores to go to because of the convenient location and stock of stationary items, particularly their stickers. They carry a lot of name brands such as San-X, Sanrio, and more. You will have a better experience if you go on a day where they recently restocked their merchandise. As of June 2022, their prices have gone up across the board by $0.25, making their lowest price item now $1.75 from formerly being $1.50. The conversion chart is off from actual yen to dollar conversions (I'm guessing because of overseas shipping costs and other overhang cost, but it gets a bit confusing if you aren't looking at the sign constantly.) read more

If I was a rich girl.... Na na na na na na naaa.... See I'd have all the $1.50 trinkets in Daiso... If I was a lucky girl.... Too much to look at! I only got through half the store and ran out of time. The cashier told me that people will spend all day looking around here! I believe it, and will be back! read more

Mama likey. We went throughout the store. Took us literally half an hour. Even though my mother says she comes here often, this time around she was grabbing a lot of things. Pans, baskets, hangers, etc. Dollah dollah dollah fifty errrthang! read more

Daiso here is smaller than it's counterparts in the bay area. didn't see certain items i normally buy so didn't seek it out. snack/eats section very anemic. cosmetic all over. i'm natural, don't need that..... buys: sunglass(1.50) -more cool looking than dollar tree's eats: spicy sirarcha peas (1.5) -actually chili garlic coated, tastes nasty. snapea crisps "caesar" flavoring, calbee (1.5) -nice crunch, nice flavor, mucho calories from fat take outs: -fab, instant service when i was ready. 4 stars -cashier station looks like punched out windows ala tellers' stations in banks. read more

WARNING: ONLY WALK INTO THIS STORE IF YOU... a) know EXACTLY what you need --OR-- b) have HOURS to kill. This place is amazing. You find the coolest and randomest things ever! Inflatable boobs? Check. Glowstick ears? Check. Things with instructions in Japanese that you will NEVER EVER know how to use or understand, but still looks cool & is cheap? Check. This is closer to the Sears side of the mall, so (if I'm not mistaken) it is directly under the AMC theater. Cool things that I've bought: 1. sushi mat roller - $1.50 2. chopsticks (I use it for my hair!) - $1.50 3. steel wool for washing pots & pans - $1.50 4. wood sticks for nails - $1.50 5. Corkboard (to hang my jewelry/earrings) - $5 .... and many other nameless items that I shall not disclose due to hindsight and saying WHAT WAS I THINKING... Minus 1 star because I swear they have a machine that sucks you in and you just lose track of time... read more

What's not to love about Daiso? Most everything is $1.50 and for that price there are some GREAT bargains to be found. I got really cute short pink oven mitts from here that I have gotten a lot of compliments for. Some cool things you'll find here for $1.50: 1. 8 pack of knock off sharpies 2. milk teas 3. sardines 4. stationary 5. makeup (false eyelashes, lipstick, nail polish, foundation, sponges) 6. slippers 7. umbrellas 8. baking supplies, bowls, chopsticks, pots, pans, party cutlery, tupperware, porcelain plates and bowls in both modern and traditional styles 9. colored staplers and rubber rings that you wear on your fingers to prevent your middle finger from getting callused 10. arm sleeves and large visors for the Asians that don't want to tan while driving 11. keychains that are soft and look like bread 12. cell phone chargers 13. smart scissors 14. gift wrap I really wish there was a Daiso in Denver. read more

Everyone at this point should know what Daiso is and the magical finds you can pick up for about $1.50 each. This location is a tad smaller, but still has a good selection of all the lovely things you love. -A pretty decent sized kitchen section. Pick up entire dishware, and all the tools you need to make your food. -A good home & organizing section. Lots of baskets, bins, tubs, etc. for all your organizational home needs. -Good school & office section. They stocked up extra for Back-to-school when I last checked. -Fun seasonal section in the front. It's still summer, so find your hats, beach balls, travel accessories, and colorful totes. I'd say the makeup/'women's section is pretty small at this location. They have a small pet area and outdoor/garden area. Overall a pretty decent Daiso. Located downstairs right by Sears so it's easy to get to. read more

Daiso, I love you! I come here and I see so many things I want! I especially love to look through their collection of dishes, cups, and silverware. There's even stuff for baking. Super cute! Everything is $1.50 unless marked otherwise! Such a good deal if you're a poor college student or trying to cut back on spending for necessities. However, I do not recommend buying the food here. THEY SELL EXPIRED FOOD! Now if you're ok with that then go ahead. Doc tors gotta make money somehow eh? read more

Daiso Japan is like a one-stop $1.50 Wal Mart. This store has pretty much everything! Snacks (the best part imo), beauty supplies, health and massage products, ceramics, stationary (school's starting soon!), clothing, bags, random knickknacks, tupperware, gift supplies, decorating supplies, pet supplies, gardening tools, automobile tools and accessories, and a whole lot of funny erasers. It's pretty clean on account that there are only about 8 employees. Everything in this store is $1.50 UNLESS MARKED OTHERWISE BY PRICE STICKERS. These stickers are mainly hidden on the tags of the products, which is probz why many of the old-folk ask for a price check. Also, there is a no return or exchange policy. All sales in Daiso are FINAL. If you break it, you buy it. If you open it, you buy it. They accept cash, credit/debit cards EXCEPT American Express and Discover. No checks. No $100 bills. ALSO! No food or drinks allowed!!!! In the past week, I've already seen two girls spill their Starbucks while I was there! Terrible. What I wish, though, are English subtitles for all the products. Most of the time, I can't understand the purpose is of the product I'm holding in my hand. So consequently, I wouldn't purchase it. Other than that lil' hindrance, Daiso is a great place to find imported goods from Japan, China, etc. read more
